The Department of Homeland Security will take extra precautions after the 2024 presidential election to in hopes of preventing another January 6 riot.

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas deemed Jan. 6, 2025, the date in which the certification of the presidential vote will occur, as a “national special security event,” according to multiple reports. It will be the first time that such a designation occurs in this country. The efforts to increase security were granted in response to a special request from Washington, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser, Fox News reported.

“This marks the first time a National Special Security Event designation has been granted for a Certification of Electoral Votes and follows a request made by the DC Mayor to designate this event a National Special Security Event,” the United States Secret Service announced in a release. “Various reports, including from the House Select January 6 Committee and the Government Accountability Office, also called for the DHS Secretary to consider a National Special Security Event designation for future Certification of Electoral Votes.”

“This designation allows for significant resources from the federal government, as well as from state and local partners, to be utilized in a comprehensive security plan,” noted the release. “When an event is designated a National Special Security Event, the U.S. Secret Service assumes its mandated role as the lead agency for the design and implementation of the operational security plan.”

That's the smart thing to do.

Probably a good idea to designate the meeting of the college of electors as a special security event.

The MAGAs want to gum up every little step and procedure to get the election thrown into the US House of Reps.
